PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight MMA rules bout between Maurício Rua (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class) and Stack Shillings (ranked 0 p4p, 0 weight class). Rua's entrance music is RZA - Samurai Theme . A fine choice. The crowd seem to be enjoying Shillings's choice of entrance music: UGK - Diamonds and Wood (Chopped and Screwed). These two fighters really are very evenly matched on the feet - it will be fascinating to see who can assert themselves in that aspect of the fight.
